Bilgi yoğun iş hizmetleri sektöründeki gelişmeler ve ekonomik büyüme üzerine etkisi

Gelişmiş ülkelerin üretim süreçlerinde bilginin önemli bir ekonomik kaynak haline geldiği görülmektedir. Aynı zamanda, bilginin yaratılması, depolanması ve dağıtılması ile ilgili işlevleri yerine getiren Bilgi Yoğun İş Hizmetleri (BYİH) sektörü gittikçe büyümektedir. Böylece BYİH sektöründeki gelişmeler ülkelerdeki ekonomik gelişmelerin temel dinamiği olarak ele alınabilir. Bu bakış açısı ile çalışmamız, 31 OECD ülkesini içeren yıllık veri tabanı üzerine Panel Regresyon Metodunu kullanarak, BYİH sektöründeki gelişmeler ile ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkiyi analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Ampirik sonuçlar BYİH sektöründeki gelişmelerin, hizmetler sektörünün diğer alt sektörleri ve imalat sektörü ile karşılaştırıldığında, ekonomik büyüme üzerinde daha önemli bir rol oynadığını göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak, BYİH sektörünü geliştirmeye yönelik politikalar günümüz ekonomilerindeki büyüme stratejilerinin temel bir parçası olması gerekir.

Developments of knowledge intensive business services sector and its effect on economic growth

It seems that knowledge becomes a significant economic source in the production process of developed countries. At the same time, Knowledge Intensive Business Services (KIBS) sector, including the economic activities concerning with generation, storing and distribution of knowledge, is getting bigger and bigger. Thus developments of KIBS sector can be dealt with the basic dynamics of economic improvement in countries. From this point of view, our study aim to analyse the relationship between the development of KIBS sector and economic growth by running Panel Regression Method on annual data of 31 OECD countries between 2000 and 2010. Empirical results show that developments of KBIS sector acts a significant role in economic growth compared to other sub-sectors of services and manufacturing sector. Consequently, policies towards improvements of KIBS sector should be the basic components of growth strategy in today’s economy.
